Bill of Rights 1689 is not a chata for charlatans
On Mr Wheeler`s High Court action against the Prime Minister and the Foreign Secretary, on their refusal to hold a referendum on whether the Lisbon Treaty should be ratified.
Information on Mr Wheeler site says that the Speaker of the House of Commons intended to apply to intervene in the case, in order to make submissions concerning parliamentary privilege and the Bill of Rights 1689. Mr Wheeler says “I do not know why the Speaker feels he needs to intervene, as arguments about these matters have already been put forward on behalf of the Prime Minister and the Foreign Secretary.”
Funny that once again we see the politicians resorting to the use of the Bill of Rights 1689, when it suits them, but they seem to be unreceptive to its other clauses when they demand protections for the people against an overpowering government.
